The error message only occurs when adding python3-pyqt5 to the image
IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " python3-pyqt5"
or adding python3-pyqt5 to another recipe as a dependency.
I tried building the image through bitbake, with bitbake core-image-sato and devtool with devtool build-image core-image-sato to no avail. I'm still new to the yocto build system, any help with issue would be greatly appreciated.
I suspect you are building on Ubuntu, Debian or similar, where /bin/sh doesn't point to bash. This seems to be a bug in the recipe, which has some bashisms.
There are a couple of options, with different level of ugliness (though they are the same at the end of the day).
1st, very ugly option: open python3-pyqt5_5.15.9.bb in meta-qt5 layer, and change lines 50 and 54
# line 50 looks like this:
extra_args+=" --disabled-feature=${i}"
# instead change it to this:
extra_args="${extra_args} --disabled-feature=${i}"
# line 54 is this:
extra_args+=" --enable=${i}"
# change it to this:
extra_args="${extra_args} --enable=${i}"
2nd, a bit less ugly option: do the same changes in a copy of the original recipe, call it python3-mypyqt5_5.15.9.bb or something like that.
3rd option which won't win any beauty pageants either: if you are using kas to build, you could create a patch for the repo, and apply it during build.
I guess there are some other ways too to have the same changes applied... but personally I would go with the 2nd option until it is fixed upstream (though my opinion has no particularly special meaning).
